Prior to the grievance committee's first meeting, the chair will make a reasonable effort, by telephone and in person, during normal working hours, to determine whether the facts presented by the person filing the grievance relative to sections 4, A, and B, where appropriate, are correct. The chair will also distribute any written materials on the grievance to committee members prior to the meeting time. At the grievance committee's first meeting, the committee will decide whether to refer the grievance to another grievance committee or to hear the grievance.

Such ad hoc members shall sit with the Committee only in relation to the grievance at hand.
B. Within 10 days of deciding that the grievance will proceed, the chair will give the respondent formal written notice of the grievance (10 days RG).

The reply shall include an explicit statement to the effect that the Committee has been provided with all the information used by the respondent. Within two days of receiving the respondent's statement, the chair shall send a copy of this statement to the grievant. The grievant may submit an addendum to his or her original statement. Such addendum muist be limited to a reply to the contents of the respondent's statement.

D. The Committee shall have 30 additional days to gather and share documents and information from the grievant, respondent, and other relevant parties (60 days RG). The chair of the committee shall ensure that all documentation gathered by the committee shall be shared with the grievant and respondent.
E. The Committee may decide to hold hearings after completing the procedures specified in D. All hearings should be completed within 30 days (90 days RG) excluding summers. The hearing shall be recorded on tape. Failure to provide information that the committee deems necessary to reach a conclusion will be construed as a concession of the case to the other party.

G. Within 10 days of the meeting or the final hearing (100 days RG), the Committee, following section 4.13.2 of the Bylaws of the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska, shall decide whether or not to order the matter reconsidered by the appropriate person, group or groups, or to recommend that other rectifying action be taken.

J. Within 20 days after receipt of the Committee's report (120 days RG); the Chancellor shall send to the Committee and at the same time to the parties, a written statement of his/her decision on the grievance. However, the Chancellor may extend his/her deadline for a decision in cases where the Committee has ordered reconsideration and additional time is required to adequately accomplish reconsideration.
